‘My first great love was designing costumes for shows’ – Jean Paul Gaultier in a VOGUE interview, photographed by Roman GOEBEL c/o SHOTVIEW

FALLING | IN LOVE – Jean Paul Gaultier, one of the most multifaceted and flamboyant figures of the fashion world, has now designed the costumes for a new revue in Berlin. And VOGUE couldn’t help but go backstage to get a glimpse. There with the magazine was photographer Roman GOEBEL c/o SHOTVIEW.

The designer’s latest project is the show FALLING | IN LOVE, which is now being performed at Friedrichstadt-Palast in Berlin, and for which he was brought on board as visual design director.

Friedrichstadt-Palast is delighted to tell us : “FALLING | IN LOVE is captivating beauty. Plunge into an undulating sea of color and emotion – curated by star designer Jean Paul GAULTIER from Paris. Berlin’s new gem of a show with the indescribable magic of 100 million Swarovski crystals. A new world record. The crowning glory of this crystal rush on the world’s biggest theater stage is the largest and heaviest Swarovski crystal – in the world.

“His masterpiece : As Visual Design Director, Jean Paul Gaultier thrills audiences with his costumes for the new show at Friedrichstadt-Palast in Berlin.” VOGUE author PATRICK PENDIUK writes.

What it’s about : You is young, full of passion and longing. In Diamond City, he is a square peg in a round hole. No love to be expected from the stone-faced people around him. Hopeless, You would just like the ground to open up and swallow him. Then the asphalt beneath his feet indeed crumbles – and You falls into another reality.

There below, in the lost garden of love, he sees what he has never seen before. The eternal human dream of a better world – it actually exists. But, walled in by traditional norms, it has lost all its colorful splendor. Will a young, deaf poet ultimately find the words to make beauty and love blossom once more in all their sparkling color?

In the interview, held only a few hours before the great premiere in Berlin, read all about whether Jean-Paul Gaultier would have perhaps preferred to become a costume designer after all, find out how to get 100 million Swarovski crystals to fit into one show, or why you just can’t seem to talk with him without the conversation somehow inevitably drifting to Madonna…
